Ice is good for inflammation if you use it 20 minutes off and 20 minutes on.

I had revision to rny 2 weeks and getting some pretty bad back pain. I am using heating pad at night with no issues.

Did you guys know that you can still get stones in your bile duct after having gallbladder removed? I had mine out more than20 years ago. My GI recently told me of this.

Matter of fact he said it is likely after about twenty years.

Hello, hope you are feeling better. I had my gastric sleeve done on 09/12/19. I had same issue. Went to a chiropractor and said it was muscle spasms and got dome some lidocaine Patches and massages. Feel like new again. [emoji1]

I stopped with the heating pad all together i feel so much better i got slight to no soreness at all im doing well thank you


So I’m a week out of surgery and I use my heating pad constantly on the large incision area, right/middle belly area. It’s the only area that still aches when I twist, turn, move. Heating pads are bad for this?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
